About Valeria

I became a caregiver because I enjoy working with people who are are disabled and in need. I like that the people I help are appreciative and knowing that I have the skills to make their life better. I am a proud mother of three girls that I love very much and will do everything possible to take care of them and keep them safe. I am a fast learner and a hard worker. I have the skills and knowledge to get the job done right.

    I worked the first shift so I came to work and got all the residents that needed to be up, dressed, and ready for breakfast. After breakfast I gave showers and changed linen for the residents that was on my list for that day. I dried all my residents and got them ready for lunch. I helped feed and pass out trays at breakfast and lunch. I took their vital signs and made beds . After lunch I made my rounds again and checked my residents, I also put some of my residents to bed if they would like to go. I did rounds every two hours and and charted on my ADL's at the end of the day.

    I learned at a young age that I truly loved people and "doing" for them. I believe that was the reason I was so successful in our hospitality business. Meeting all types of personalities and caring to their needs was always my pleasure. I have gravitated to the elderly for more years than I can remember. Perhaps because the businesses we (my husband & I had) catered to were mostly retired clientele. What I enjoy most is knowing I am making a positive difference in the life of the individual I have been entrusted to care for and watch over. I am proud of the fact I have developed many long lasting, loving relationships with people I have met throughout my life time. I am a good friend and listener and I deeply love my life, family and friends and I am most grateful for the many wonderful opportunities I have experienced.
